I see I'm alone here, but I'm really leaning towards bledsoe. I want the proven guy on defense. Who i know for a fact will be a major upgrade from vasquez. I'm jus not sure about burke. Im not overly impressed over him like most others. I think he will be a decent pg. Possibly have a rather succesful career. But to be the next cp3 as some people hype hype him up to be..naww not at all

Do I really need to explain this for the 4,000,000th time? I think Bledsoe will continue to be what he had proven to be in the NBA, a good backup point guard. His own team gave up a bunch to replace him and they improved greatly by doing so. Oh, but his PER is high going against backups.

I was laughing at your delivery. You have no crystal ball. Nobody is saying he is terrible, but you keep acting like he's a future all-star, which I think is laughable, hence the emoticon.

id love bledsoe if we could keep our lotto pick, otherwise take burke with the 4th or 5th pick and im fine with that too, just get us a point guard that can deny the lane and actualy close out on 3 point shooters i think greivas is a great backup in the league but he IS NOT a good enough defender to be on the court in the nba when it matters most.. i hope we keep roberts and get blesdoe somehow while keeping out lotto pick to get otto porter, this would be FAP worthy

quote:I agree. He gets knocked a bit because he isnt a traditional pg. No rule says your pg must get X assists in order to be good or a good fit.

It's more than assist numbers. You've made it pretty clear that you are anti-assist as an indicator of guard play, but a PG should get assists, or he's either a chucker or not a point guard.

Bledsoe is touted as this defensive/transition monster by several posters, but transition often leads to easy assists. Where are those? Overall, it implies he is a good finisher, but has limited court vision, which I want in a PG.

Frankly, he is another combo guard that is pretty redundant with Gordon. People are trying to make him a starting PG here, but I just don't see it. If I eat crow, so be it. I really just don't think his numbers will project out to a starting PG role.

This is also the first season Bledsoe has shot over 28% from 3P. His ast/to was at or below 1.5 prior to this year. This is his best year for ast/to by far, and it's still only 1.58. That's without having to carry the load and bring the ball up the court against the best opposing defense.

I'm just not sold on him as a big upgrade. He could definitely improve our rotation, but I don't think he is a big splash in our pond.
